Lady Macbeth. She has all the charms
her mother had ut the age of IS; is tail,
dark and bright eyed, with an expressive
face and the form of Venus de Milo
Her mother is in full sympathy with the
daughters ambition; and if there is any

Justice Chase.

constant succession of dramatic scenes,
social success giving place to something

was the recognized queen of Washington
society, and many an old habituc of the
capital maintains that she has had no
successor to equal her. Her fathers sue

 Guilty" There was ot one heart In court that did not acne fer her; every one seemed to recognize the fact that there was a mystery. The universal opinion was that the prisoner had been made the tool of some London gang of thieves, and dared not betray them. "Guilty, with five years im- prisonmenJ, not hard labor" To have condemned her to that would have been to condemn her to death. Then the trial was over, and the universal opinion was that it had been Q perfect ly just sentence.
 Five years Imprisonment. The prisoner gave no sign of emotion when she heard it, but when Mir. Branscombe, her solicitor, came to her afterward and said, eproachfully-''I could hay e done more for you if you would have allowed me-" she smiled as she an- swered:
 You did me the greatest kindness when you made no effort to save me. :"
 "I hope l shall live to unravel the mystery :" he said to himself, ''for mystery am sure there is ."
 It was all over then. When the time came, the prisoner was removed from Clavering and sent to the model prison at Holloway.
